The hotel is boutique and very intimate. The rooftop bar is lovely, has a happy hour, and great views. The hotel is across the street from the pier and all the good restaurants so it’s quite convenient. The staff are super friendly. They do valet so you can get your car easily. My only complaint was that it was too dimly lit. But we would highly recommend.

Cute hotel. Just felt like the attention to detail was lacking. From check-in to breakfast buffet for the price point for hotel rate.

Old school feel, but the bath tub did not seem fully cleaned. There was difficulty getting back into our room during the night due to the lack of elevators and the bar over crowding the area.

Nice but noisey--sleepless in St. Pete.

Room was very nice--service was great and so was the location. You could not hear the rooftop club from the room but the walls were thin and the windows seemed single paned--so you could hear those going to and from the club, returning to their rooms, and even their not so loud conversations from the adjoining rooms.

We loved the hotel, unfortunately we had guests with no respect running around in the middle of the night making a lot of noise!
